The VLA-ANGST Galaxy Sample

The VLA-ANGST sample is based on the volume-filled galaxy survey ANGST, the ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey (Dalcanton et al. 2009). The survey fills a volume of up to 3.5Mpc distance with cones out to 4Mpc, but excludes Local Group galaxies. From the 89 ANGST galaxies, VLA-ANGST is a subset with objects that are known to contain HI or show signs of active star formation. We also exclude galaxies that are too far south or those that were observed in the THINGS program. Of the 34 VLA-ANGST galaxies, we detect HI in 29.
